Today we're working in a beautiful chalk grassland coomb with a view

Gallery picture
The rarer chalk grassland plants are being choked by Tor grass

Tor grass is unpalatable to livestock, so we're clearing it with grass hooks

Gallery picture
We concentrate on rescuing the steep south facing slopes

By the afternoon we have made good progress

The high winds made work difficult at times
